Regarding locale and patch!

[jojo@buchonline.net]

Hi list,

i have try to patch the Search.pm several times. But with no succuss.
This is the first time with MV 3.14-3 (to patch any files with no
success).

It is curious! After editing the Searchpm file with xemacs-20.4 and
restart the minivend server, i get

---snip------------------
server:# bin/start
syntax error at /home/mvend/lib/Vend/Search.pm line 35, near "$ =~"
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /home/mvend/bin/minivend line 227.
server:# 
---snip------------------

diff tell me

---snip------------------
server:#diff Search.pm.sic Search.pm
35c35
< if($ =~ /win32/i) {
---
> if($ =~ /win32/i) {
---snip------------------

I can't see any difference! But with a hexeditor, is see the difference
like

hexedit Search.pm.sic (original)
00000410   0A 0A 69 66  28 24 0F 20  3D 7E 20 2F  77 69 6E 33  32 2F 69 29  ..if($. =~ /win32/i)
                              ^^^^^^^^^                              
hexedit Search.pm (after patching)
00000410   0A 0A 69 66  28 24 20 3D  7E 20 2F 77  69 6E 33 32  2F 69 29 20  ..if($ =~ /win32/i)
                              ^^^^^

The file Search.pm.sic is the orignal file from the minivend ftp site.
What is the reason of this different results with my xemacs? Before i
get a new minivend version 3.14-3, i was always able to patch any files
with no failures.

Maybe the minivend libfiles are broken at the ftp site and this is a
reason of my trouble with locale?

Any hints, tips and helps are very welcome!

Thanks!

Joachim
